Bro what is the point, there's no correlation between those articles and the course. Azure is a multibillion dollar industry. If you don't like the tech stack that's cool and all but these are valuable in that ecosystem.

Am I correct in thinking a beginners first class should be the Azure AI Fundamentals?

Yes. The 900 level exams are entry level. The 100 level exams are expert tier.

All 3 of those articles are literally the same CEO guy criticizing Microsoft. Not saying Microsoft is all good, but maybe give a more diverse source than just one person? Who knows if this guy has a personal vendetta against Microsoft lol

When I try to sign up, it asks for a company subscription id which requires adding a payment method. Not sure if I want to add my credit info on my employer azure account. Anybody has signed up and can help please?

Not as good as previous deals where an actually useful exam was offered rather than overhyped AI. But free is free and maybe I'll learn something useful or just waste 20 hours.
